Our 2024 Impact

Thank you for being an essential part of Victoria’s History teaching community and for supporting, in big ways and small, what your association does. Every contribution helps strengthen our shared mission to help History teachers – and through them, their students and schools – to flourish.

'HTAV' is just a collective term for all the people who become members, come to professional learning events, booklist our textbooks, mentor new teachers, write for Agora and generously share resources with colleagues across the state.

Your support, dedication and passion make all the difference – thank you for everything you do!

This year, because of you, HTAV has been able to:

• advocate for History students and teachers with state and national education authorities, and in the media
• provide curated resources and information for History teachers in twelve Member Bulletins, distributed to over 5,000 members
• support its members with professional learning events, including two conferences, two History Teaching Masterclasses and events for new and out-of-field teachers
• offer a day full of expert tips and advice for over 800 VCE students preparing for the exams
• bring together 40 History teachers under the HTAV Peer Mentoring Program, a record for the program
• publish three issues of Agora, the professional reading journal for History teachers
• support teachers and students around the state with HTAV textbooks and resources, selling 12,000 HTAV titles
• provide opportunities for members to extend themselves professionally by writing books and articles, presenting at events, undertaking leadership training, and coordinating History Week activities
• coordinate Victoria’s participation in the National History Challenge and the Simpson Prize competition.

Your support has enabled all of this – and more – to happen. Thank you.
